When my Grandpa was in his 80's mixing farm chemicals he would say that he is old enough that the affects won't catch up to him.

The good thing about growing older is one does not have to worry about filling up a day or time, everything I do takes many times longer to complete.
Either it is gettting a lot more windy or that is just the rest of the world flying past me faster than in the past.

I have never had a high tolerance for bone heads. Now I have none.


Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

When people would ask my grandpa how he was doing, he'd say, "I can still sit upright and feed myself", with a big smirk on his face. He was tough as nails to the end.
